Let’s talk about how to wear your hair while you’re sleeping!

Have you ever considered the impact your pillowcase could have on the health and appearance of your hair? We love how silk pillowcases transform our nightly beauty sleep. Not only do silk pillowcases provide a soft and gentle surface for your hair to glide over, but they also help to minimize friction, reduce tangles, and prevent breakage, leaving you with smoother, shinier locks each morning.

Below you’ll find a tutorial on how to sleep with your hair pulled up to maintain your style for days to come! This also works for our non-extension wearing clients, too!

Plus, our favorite link to some silk pillowcases to refresh your bedding this fall!

01. Grab your fav hair tie!

We prefer a silk or cotton one that’s not too tight but secure enough to hold your hair in place!

02. Flip your head gently

Remember to be gentle with your hair! It’s the key to the longevity of your extensions and ensure you keep a healthy scalp and hair!

03. Loose pony, but not too loose

After flipping your head, put your hair in a loose pony with the hair tie wrapped around, making sure nothing is tugging, but securing it enough to keep it in a good position while you get your beauty sleep.

04. The second wrap around

After wrapping the hair tie once to secure a loose pony, now wrap it around one more time, pulling your hair until just the ends are left in the hair tie, leaving you with a cutie loose bun!

05. The MOST important part

After your hair is secured in the loose bun, gently loosen the wefts by slowly pulling down a smidge, so there is no tension or pulling on your wefts or beads.
